BREAKING: Akwa Ibom Gov Eno Dumps PDP For APC
Akwa Ibom Governor Umo Eno has officially announced his defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
He made the announcement on Friday, June 6, during a formal ceremony at the Government House in Uyo.
The event attracted prominent APC figures from across the country.
Speaking at the event, Eno said: “After completing the rounds of my consultation as your servant whom you have elected to serve, I have therefore decided to progressively move to the APC.”
He emphasised that his defection was a strategic move: “We are not joining the APC from a position of weakness, but from a position of strength. We’re bringing value to Akwa Ibom State. We’ve come into the APC with a ministry of reconciliation.”
Dignitaries present at the event included Governors Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Lagos); Sheriff Oborevwori (Delta); Bassey Otu (Cross River) Monday Okpebholo (Edo); Senate President Godswill Akpabio and wife Ekaette.
Governor Eno’s defection marks a major political shift in Akwa Ibom State and could significantly alter the state’s political landscape ahead of future elections.
